This week I read 2 books the first The Power of Your words..........once again as I read this book I found myself repenting for words that come out of my mouth..not only against others but against myself. Prov says life and death are in the power of the tonuge. James says who can control it? I sure can't but with the Holy Spirit in me I can. I've been praying each morning the verse in Prov Set a guard to my mouth. Also taht the HOly Spirit would nudge me when I am about to speak death and that I would be obedient!
Today (Leidy's Church is here so I don't have to cook) I read The Shack......I took a long time to borrow the book because I wasn't sure I wanted to read it. I admit it is a bit weird but it spoke to me so much right where I am. After finishing it I just cried and fell asleep crying feeling Jesus' love for me in a whole new way. If you want something to mess with your theology read it! But looking past some of the stuff that is differant it really uts to the heart.

I'll have to get my hands on The Shack! You've made me want to read it. ANd I've been thinking about my words as well. Ugh. They aren't too fresh and life giving a lot of the time. Beth Moore brought it up in my BS the other week...very timely for me. God, help me!
Horray! for no cooking and lots of reading!
I liked "The Shack" too. Not sure about all of the theology, but the main idea is so good - how much God loves us! I want to experience that so much more!
